Description

A improper restriction of communication channel to intended endpoints vulnerability [CWE-923] in Fortinet FortiOS version 7.4.0 through 7.4.4, 7.2.0 through 7.2.8, 7.0.0 through 7.0.15, 6.4.0 through 6.4.15 and before 6.2.16, Fortinet FortiProxy version 7.4.0 through 7.4.2, 7.2.0 through 7.2.9 and before 7.0.15, Fortinet FortiManager version 7.4.0 through 7.4.2, 7.2.0 through 7.2.4, 7.0.0 through 7.0.11, 6.4.0 through 6.4.14 and before 6.2.13, Fortinet FortiAnalyzer version 7.4.0 through 7.4.2, 7.2.0 through 7.2.4, 7.0.0 through 7.0.11, 6.4.0 through 6.4.14 and before 6.2.13, Fortinet FortiVoice version 7.0.0 through 7.0.2 before 6.4.8 and Fortinet FortiWeb before 7.4.2 may allow an unauthenticated attacker in a man-in-the-middle position to impersonate the management device (FortiCloud server or/and in certain conditions, FortiManager), via intercepting the FGFM authentication request between the management device and the managed device

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Weaknesses

Improper Restriction of Communication Channel to Intended Endpoints

The product establishes a communication channel to (or from) an endpoint for privileged or protected operations, but it does not properly ensure that it is communicating with the correct endpoint. Learn more on MITRE.
